Hi all..
I've started up kayaking again after some years.. I'm located near Lewes. I've been doing a lot on the river ouse between barcombe mills and isfield but more happy to try else where if anyone wants to join up.
Thanks
Ollie

Re: Scarborough
The only WW I know around there is the Sea Cut from the Derwent down to Scalby Mills, but I think that's harder. Otherwise, see Esk & Rye in north east river descriptions.

Re: The best play weirs in the UK (that aren't Hurley)
Hampshire's best playspot is at East Mills, but few seem to know about it.

... There is nothing else around Christchurch, now further up the Avon at East Mills (Fordingbridge) there's a nice little play spot, but comes with lots of local hassle.
